Celtic Knot






Christmas presents are already happening over here.  I'm only posting on this particular one because I'm 99% sure that my in-laws don't read my blog.  I created a Celtic design using a basic compass.  I had an idea of how I wanted it to turn out, but just went with it in the end.  I like the "Trinity" design that got worked into it.  Andrew specifically requested an ornate design for the script.  I outlined everything with my Micron pen and then used watercolors for the color.  At the very end I splattered the entire print for more texture.  Now all it needs is a suitable frame.
